Get the http:// and http://www. traffic
This should be easy...
I recently setup a new reseller account. But, the accounts I create are only valid with the http://www.<domainname.com> format.

How do I redirect the http://<domainname.com> urls to the http://www.<domainname.com> location

thanks,

This is not an HTML question. It's either a web server or DNS question -- without more details, I can't tell which.

You should ask your web host about this. It sounds like your DNS settings may need to be changed.

This is actually a web server question. Which webserver are you using? Apache or IIS? I'll have a mod move it to the appropriate forum once we figure out which webserver you'll be using.

As hiker said it depends on what kinds of server you have,
but if you are on Apache you should be able to do something like the following
(presuming you have permission to do this within .htaccess)
.htaccess Code:
Original - .htaccess Code 
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
You might able to be able to do this through your hosts control panel if they have one,.

Hi,

You can easily to do it at your domain control panel. Just adding a CNAME record.

The zone file should then be:

YourDomain.com. IN A xxx.xx.xx.x
www.YourDomain.com. IN CNAME YourDomain.com.

where xxx.xx.xx.x is the IP address of your hosting server.

Then your website can be accessed by:

http://YourDomain.com
http://www.YourDomain.com

Best regards

hiker disagrees: That doesnt help the OP who wants to know how to redirect.
